The dose volume histograms, homogeneity index (HI), conformity index (CI) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of main organs at risk were derived using Prowess Panther treatment planning system. Results: The results of this study indicated an increase in HI and CI for IMRT plans compared to 3D-CRT. Furthermore, IMRT techniques led to a statistically significant reduction in received dose by mandible (up to 10.10 Gy) and thyroid (up to 13.59 Gy) compared to the conventional technique used; whereas, it led to a statistically significant increase in received dose by parotid glands (up to 7.62 Gy) and brain stem (up to 9.87 Gy). In addition, IMRT increased (up to 12.79%) the probability of occurrence of parotid xerostomia and decreased mandibular complications (up to 7.76%) in comparison to conventional treatment. Conclusions: It can be concluded that IMRT can be more successful in improving oral tongue cancer treatment with more conformity and homogeneity. However, IMRT may not be required for all patients with oral tongue cancer at early stage of the disease.","PeriodicalId":14498,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Radiation Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44753832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: A total of 20 patients with lung cancer in 2017 were selected. Seven radiation beams were designed for each patient, and the limit ring width (RW) was set at 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2 cm, respectively. The distance between the inner diameter of the limit ring and the target area (RD) was set 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2 cm, respectively.

In order to meet shielding requirements for high energy photon beams, the wall thickness had to be increased. Since the vaults are already limited in size, instead of adding more concrete, materials with high-Z elements were used. Limited vault size and addition of high-Z elements can contribute to the neutron dose equivalent for both medical personnel and patients. Materials and Methods: The most commonly used empirical equations for estimation of neutron dose equivalent at the maze door in the vault are by Kersey and Wu-McGinley. In order to assess accuracy of these equations, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of various geometrical and compositional changes of vault were conducted. Neutron ambient dose equivalent (Hn(10)) was observed when dimensions of the vault walls were reduced gradually. Results: The empirical equations gave results with reasonable accuracy when vaults were of standard size. When the vault was decreased to the size of the usual Co unit vault, the most commonly used equations showed significant difference in results (up to 90%) in comparison to MC simulations. MC simulations showed that introducing different materials in shielding can change the neutron dose equivalent in vicinity of accelerators. Conclusion: For vaults limited in size, new simplified equation for neutron dose equivalent at the maze doors is presented, although performing a MC simulation of the specific vault is suggested.","PeriodicalId":14498,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Radiation Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49662647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We evaluated the radiation dose received by breast cancer patients, an oftenneglected concern. Materials and Methods: The total effective radiation dose in 101 breast cancer patients was calculated by summing the effective doses of individual diagnostic imaging tests from the first hospital visit to the initiation of radiotherapy. The effective dose from general radiography and computed tomography (CT) was estimated using tissue-weighting factors and dose-length products. The effective dose from isotopes (18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 99m Tc-methylene diphosphonate) was estimated from the radioactivity of each isotope using dose coefficients. The patient radiation exposures were analyzed using radiologic records in the Picture Archiving and Communication System. Results: The median duration from initial imaging to the initiation of radiotherapy was 4.5 months (range: 0.7–13.4 months). When comparing the average effective doses associated with each diagnostic modality, CT, positron emission tomography-CT, bone scanning and radiography occupied 64%, 21%, 10% and 5% of the total effective dose, respectively. Comparison of the total effective dose according to clinical factors (age, AJCC stage, T stage, N stage, operation method, and cancer location) by multivariate analysis revealed that only T stage was significantly correlated with the total effective dose (p = 0.004). The median total effective dose was 71.5 mSv (range: 11.9–131.9 mSv). Conclusion: The radiation dose received from diagnostic testing in breast cancer patients is not negligible. We need to systematically collect and manage the doses received by patients from medical procedures.","PeriodicalId":14498,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Radiation Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67647699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A 25-year-old female patient presented with a one-year history of bunion pain, sclerotic change and skin pigmentation on the left big toe interphalangeal joint. Ulceration, poor healing and hyperkeratoses of the wound were noted post debridement. The plain film of the left foot incidentally showed melorheostosis. Materials and Methods: Radiographs revealed cortical hyperostosis of big toe. After further evaluation by X-ray and bone scan of the left foot, the radiologic findings still indicated melorheostosis. A further Tc-99m MDP bone scan revealed extensive bone involvement in the left side of the pelvis and entire left lower extremity. Moreover, plain film whole body bone scan and MRI also revealed melorheostosis. Results: The clinical symptoms of her left big toe included interphalangeal joint callus formation, debridement, ulcer and hyperkeratoses. X-rays often reveal a pattern of thickened bone that resembles dripping candle wax, with periosteal cortical thickening, confined to sclerotomes; and can be seen apparently flowing across joints to the next bone. In the nuclear medicine image, an increase in radiotracer uptake is usually present on late phase bone scans.

There were no significant differences between treatment modalities in the HI for more complex shapes. The HI increased monotonically as the virtual target diameter increased for the CK (p = 0.048). The flatness parameter was lower for the TB than for the CK (1.4 vs. 1.1; p < 0.001).

Materials and Methods: The QA phantom was constructed with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to perform relative dosimetry using EBT3 film and MapCHECK, as well as absolute dosimetry using an ionization chamber. The QA phantom was constructed to perform relative dosimetry using EBT3 film and MapCHECK, as well as the absolute dosimetry using ionization chamber. In order to verify the pretreatment plans, 25 patients treated with VMAT were selected. The pretreatment plans were calculated in the Eclipse treatment planning system using the Acuros XB dose calculation algorithm and CT images for the QA phantom, with the same beam setup and monitor units (MUs) as those for patient treatment. All plans were delivered to the Varian TrueBeam accelerator equipped with a high-definition multi-leaf collimator. Results: The multi-purpose QA phantom is developed for convenient VMAT dose verification. By using the QA phantom, all 25 cases passed ±3% acceptability criteria in absolute dosimetry with an ionization chamber for pretreatment verification. The relative dosimetry using EBT3 film and MapCHECK system also showed high agreement of more than 90% for 2%/2-mm and 3%/3-mm criteria.
